Villas and small hotels run their front desk from WhatsApp. Type "Rahul, 2 nights from 15 Dec, ₹6,000, ₹2,000 advance" and Chakrio saves the booking, confirms the guest, tracks payments and expenses, syncs Airbnb and Booking.com, and answers enquiries.

Hi everyone, I'm Yagya, maker of Chakrio.
Most small hotels, villas and pilgrim guesthouses in India don't run on software. They run on a WhatsApp group, a paper register and the manager's memory. Every property system we showed them meant a new app, a login and staff training, so nobody used it.
Chakrio works the other way round. The team keeps typing into WhatsApp or Telegram, in English or Hindi, and Chakrio turns those messages into records:
"Rahul, 2 nights from 15 Dec, ₹6,000, ₹2,000 advance" becomes a booking, and the guest gets a WhatsApp confirmation
"Rahul paid 4000 upi" or "plumber 1200" records the payment or expense
Guests who message the property get dates and prices, and the manager approves the booking with one reply
A web dashboard shows the calendar, monthly P&L, guest notes and campaigns, and OTA calendars sync automatically
It's live at a dharmshala (Raghuleela Dham) and a villa (Niva). It's built for India (UPI, GST invoices, Hindi), so payments won't fit every country yet.
There's a 14-day free trial. I'd love feedback, especially from anyone who runs or has worked at a small property.
